2 Chronicles 28:1 Ahaz. The account of Ahaz’s reign (735–715 B.C.) shows how his spiritual unfaithfulness brought Judah to ruin. Yet the dark picture of Judah’s decline is lessened somewhat by its northern kinsmen, who respond to the prophetic word (vv. 2 Chronicles 28:8). Although the Chronicler does not mention it here, the northern kingdom fell to Assyria in 722 B.C., during the reign of Ahaz in the south (see 2 Kings 17:6).
